Re: Invest in DISH
Not to tear your post up, or you... but, um... orders pouring in doesn't indicate anything. And, I don't think it has ANYTHING to do with NFL specifically as the season is coming to an end soon. Additionally, people don't swarm to Dish for Football.
I've been life long friends with a family that owns a satellite dealer in Sacramento - one of the largest. Their orders go up and down like anything else. They handle DirecTV, Dish, and the big dish. There are times where they can't even get a single Dish order while they get a large influx of DirecTV and Big Dish. It also depends largely on the area you're in too.. if the cable operator in the area sucks, you'll see more orders.. if the cable operator is good, it's anyone's guess. |

DirecTV Needs to Step It Up
Anyone not in Austin should know there has been an all out PR blitz between TW and NFL over distribution rights of the NFL Channel.
What's wierd about this is I heard a reporter on KLBJ 590 state that the game was `only available on Dish Network`. Interesting, I have DirecTV and I watched the game in HD on 212-1. Later I heard a radio spot from Cowboys owner Jerry Jones saying that a future game was unavailable on the local cable stations so call up Dish Network and subscribe.
Wow... now I know where the `reporters` are getting their PR from.
DirecTV really missed out on this one. They should have been beating the streets getting subscribers.
As for AT&T... nice to see they keep paying off our elected officials. |

| Ok, don't really invest in Dish Network based off this. However, my parents are friends with a guy who owns a local satellite shop. They sell Dish Network, install it, all that good stuff. He said orders have been pouring in faster than they can keep up. In all his years he said he has never seen this much demand for satellite television.
